The Power of Open Scholarship and Open EducationJessie Daniels
This presentation tells the story of my evolution on open access and open educational resources through three stories. I end with some things that scholars who want to share their work more openly can do now.
Dr. Jessie Daniels gave a presentation on digital, public scholarship in the current academic landscape. She notes that academics are increasingly focused on real-world problems and engaging the public sphere. She highlights examples of social movements that have utilized digital tools for activism. Daniels' own website receives over 200,000 unique visitors per month and has allowed her to engage in scholarship, journalism, and activism. She argues that legacy models of closed, removed academic scholarship must evolve to take advantage of new digital technologies and opportunities for open, public engagement.
Deception, Propaganda & Epistemology on the Anti-Social WebJessie Daniels
The Internet enables new discursive strategies that are simultaneously deceptive, difficult to detect and potentially effective at eroding the epistemological foundation of progressive political action. I examine online deception used by white supremacists, anti-abortion activists, and climate change deniers as a way to explore epistemology in the digital era. Specifically, I examine the strategy of cloaked sites. Avowed white supremacists have, since the early days of the popular Internet, owned the URL MartinLutherKing dot org, which appears to be a tribute page but is in fact, a form of white supremacist rhetoric intended to undermine civil rights. Anti-abortion activists use cloaked sites such as Teen Breaks dot com to exhort young women about the dangers of so-called “post –abortion syndrome,” a pro-life rhetorical strategy disguised as a medical diagnosis. And, climate change deniers, often backed by corporate interests such as the coal industry, launch cloaked sites like Americans for Balanced Energy Choices to challenge facts of global warming. I argue that the struggle across a range of issues over “truth,” and “facts” are ultimately epistemological questions that are raised by the digital era.
The document provides instructions for feminists to get involved in editing Wikipedia by creating an account, adding their name to a page for feminist editors, and learning basics of editing like adding references and using the citation gadget. It includes links to resources for editing Wikipedia entries and tutorials on citation and creating entries that adhere to Wikipedia guidelines.
The document summarizes Jessie Daniels' presentation "Theorizing Race & Racism on the Web" given at the Theorizing the Web Conference in 2011. It discusses the history of views on race and the internet from the 1990s optimism that race would not matter online to recent research showing that racism is prevalent online. Daniels argues that current theories of racial identity formation do not adequately address racism on the global internet and suggests we need new approaches to understand how race and racism function in this networked, global digital environment.
The document presents preliminary data from the National Study of Sexual and Gender Minorities (SJS) including demographics of Black, Latinx, API, women, older, and youth samples as well as findings on technology use, religion, health, and the intersection of sexual and racial identity. Key findings show differences between SJS samples and national samples on factors like religious service attendance and insurance rates. The study aims to disseminate results through videos, webinars, gatherings, reports, and curriculum to document sociopolitical experiences of sexual and gender minority communities.

"Social media as a research and collaboration tool" - social media tips for PhD students presented at the University of Queensland School of Tourism, 18th July 2012
Digital Storytelling in the Classroom-Kayleigh Willard Kayleigh Grace
Digital storytelling is a modern approach to storytelling that allows students to tell stories digitally using images, music, voice, and text. It does not require any experience with movie making. Creating digital stories enhances technology-rich project learning and encourages students to think critically and present ideas creatively. To tell a digital story, students find a topic, map out the story, grab the audience's attention right away, tell the story from their unique perspective, use vivid language, provoke emotion, use their own voice, carefully choose images and sounds, keep the story brief and ensure it has rhythm. Examples of digital story projects include stories about authors, autobiographies, instructions, and book reports.

Digital storytelling involves combining narrative with digital media like images, sound, and video to create short films typically with an emotional component. Digital stories can be instructional, persuasive, historical, or reflective and generally last 2-5 minutes. They follow 7 elements of storytelling including point of view, dramatic question, emotional content, voice, soundtrack, economy, and pacing. The process involves writing a script, adding multimedia elements, and using software to create a movie. Digital storytelling allows people to teach beliefs and values, builds on oral tradition, and gives students experience with self-representation and digital media skills. It has educational uses like introducing new material and helping students develop communication, computer, and other skills.

http://www.diigo.com/list/malbooth/uts-library-research-week
This document discusses how technologies are impacting research practices and academic discourse. It explores how researchers are using tools like blogs, Twitter, SlideShare and social networking to collaborate, disseminate findings and engage in scholarly communication. The emergence of these Web 2.0 technologies is shifting academic practices from individual to social and more openly visible work. While raising new opportunities, it also poses challenges around ensuring quality and managing the fragmented information landscape.
The document summarizes an upcoming conference on interaction called "Interaction". The conference will bring together researchers from fields like interaction design, HCI, and social and human perspectives on technology. It seeks to understand how people engage with and are affected by digital media and technology. The conference program over three days includes keynote speeches from Jeffrey Bardzell, Jon Hindmarsh and Lisa Nakamura, paper presentations, workshops and group discussions, and social activities like a conference dinner.
Digital storytelling involves students creating short multimedia stories using images, audio, and video to tell a story. It enhances project-based learning and encourages critical thinking. To create a digital story, students choose a topic, map out the story, grab the audience's attention right away, tell the story from their unique perspective, use vivid language and images purposefully, and keep the story brief and rhythmic. Digital storytelling projects could include stories about authors, autobiographies, instructions, or cultural traditions. Programs like PowerPoint, Photo Story, and Movie Maker can be used to create digital stories.

Digital identity: developing your professional online presence as an academic...Sue Beckingham
Using the 5C Framework (Nerantzi and Beckingham 2014, 2015) as a lens, we will explore how social media can be used to connect, communicate, curate, collaborate and create, and in doing so learn how to:
develop a digital professional persona to share scholarly achievements
cultivate valued personal learning networks and co-learning communities
benefit from 'working (and learning) out loud'
find new approaches and practical examples of using social media
as co-learners share examples of effective practice and consider how these might be applied in your own contexts
This document discusses the concepts of deviance and social control. It introduces Erving Goffman's theory of dramaturgy, which argues that individuals present different versions of themselves depending on the social situation and that there is no single, stable core identity. The document suggests that most evil acts are perpetrated by social systems rather than individuals alone, and that we must learn to critique and resist these systems. It concludes by providing advice for students to answer all discussion questions, take all quizzes, and review past materials in preparation for the final exam.
Soc101 - Collective Behavior & Social MovementsJessie Daniels
This document discusses social movements and collective behavior. It introduces key concepts like collective behavior, crowds, and different crowd types. Traditional theories for understanding crowds are discussed as well as how digital technologies are changing collective behavior. Social movements are introduced as goal-oriented groups seeking social change. Questions are asked about defining and differentiating collective behavior and social movements. The role of the internet in changing social movements and collective behavior is discussed.

Traditional theories for understanding crowds are discussed as well as how digital technologies are changing collective behavior. Social movements are introduced as goal-oriented groups seeking social change. Questions are asked about defining and differentiating collective behavior and social movements. The role of the internet in changing social movements and collective behavior is discussed.
This document discusses how technology and the internet have changed media, economics, and society. It addresses several key points:
1) The internet has disrupted traditional broadcast and advertising models by allowing for many-to-many communication and long-tail economics through niche markets.
2) Users are now "prosumers" who both consume and produce media, representing a shift away from distinct producers and consumers.
3) The internet has led to changes in work through the sharing economy, with workers taking on temporary gig work without benefits instead of full-time jobs.
4) The document also discusses how racism, hate speech, and white supremacy have adapted to the digital era through more accessible and global
White Women, Popular Culture & Narratives of AddictionJessie Daniels
This presentation examines the role of white women in two popular television series that feature narratives of addiction.
We conducted a systematic analysis of a narrative television show, Law and Order, and a reality-based show, Intervention, using nine (9) seasons over the same time period (2000-2010). We use this analysis to argue that white women play an important symbolic role in justifying the racist drug war.
This document summarizes the spread of racist propaganda in the digital era. It discusses how white supremacist rhetoric has become easier to access globally through digital technologies and social media. The document outlines three key aspects: 1) the modern forms of racist propaganda, 2) how the author's previous research showed how white supremacist messaging has changed online, and 3) how the changing media ecosystem has elevated and amplified racist views. It warns that racist propaganda aims to put important moral and political victories up for debate and threatens democracy.
This document provides an introduction to sociological concepts related to deviance and social control. It discusses key topics including the social construction of what is considered "deviant", labeling theory, and the debate around the influence of social structure versus individual agency. Labeling is presented as a powerful mechanism of social control. Theories of symbolic interactionism emphasize how individuals create identities through social interactions, while structural approaches stress how people are shaped by broader forces. The document uses the work of Erving Goffman to explain how individuals perform different roles and identities depending on social context.
This document provides an introduction and overview of topics related to sociology of health and medicine. It discusses key questions around why some groups are healthier than others and how diagnosis can be a form of social control. It introduces concepts like structural determinants of health and structural violence to explain differences in health outcomes based on social and economic factors beyond individual choices. Medicalization is discussed as a process by which normal human conditions become defined and treated as medical issues, and how this can be a form of social control. Healthism and its link to neoliberal ideas about individual responsibility for health are also covered.
This document discusses the changing landscape of academic scholarship in the digital age. It notes how scholarship was traditionally closed and removed from the public sphere, but new technologies have changed this. It discusses different options for open access publishing like gold and green routes. It emphasizes the importance for digital scholars to be aware of their rights when publishing and to make their work as open and accessible as possible in order to have broader impact. It provides an example of an addendum that can be added to publishing agreements to retain more open access rights. The overall message is that digital technologies have transformed scholarly practice and scholars should leverage these tools to make their work openly available to the public.
Understanding Trump & the Alt-Right MovementJessie Daniels
This is a talk I gave for the Hunter College Sociology Department, November 9, 2016 about the Trump election and the alt-right movement. Most of this is in the text of this related blog post: http://www.racismreview.com/blog/2016/11/09/understanding-trump-moment/
How has the Internet changed the way white supremacy spreads? Has it made it more mainstream? This talk presents research from two studies, before and after the rise of the popular Internet. Findings suggest that the issue is not "recruitment" but a challenge to hard-won moral and legal victories, that turns the clock backward on civil rights.
"Feminism, Activism, Politics: The Trouble with White Feminism"Jessie Daniels
Jessie Daniels, PhD gave a talk titled "Feminism, Politics & Activism: The Trouble with White Feminism" where she made three key points:
1) Historically, white women have often been complicit in and benefited from systems of racism and white supremacy, from slavery to lynchings. Only a small minority of white women resisted and advocated for racial justice.
2) In the 1960s civil rights era, most white women supported segregationist policies while black feminists challenged racism within feminist and anti-war movements.
3) In recent years, high-profile white feminist campaigns and organizations like Lean In and SlutWalk have been criticized for ignoring issues of
In this overview, I discuss the changing landscape of being a scholar in an era of digital technology, open access publishing, and shifting scholarly practices. At the end are several links to resources for the workshop.
Digital Sociology: Making the Digital Central to Sociological ResearchJessie Daniels
Digital sociology examines how digital technologies influence society and should be central to sociological research. The document outlines the history and development of digital sociology from the 1990s to present. Key areas that digital sociology can influence include theoretical approaches, research methods, and understanding how digital media impacts issues like hate groups, incarceration, health, and education. Digital sociology is still emerging but growing rapidly in relevance and importance given society's increasing digitalization.
Reimagining Scholarly Communication for the Public GoodJessie Daniels
This document summarizes Jessie Daniels' presentation about reimagining scholarly communication for the public good. Daniels argues that academics can no longer remain isolated in the "ivory tower" and must demonstrate their public worth. New digital technologies have changed how scholarship is conducted, published, accessed, and measured. Scholarly work is becoming more open, collaborative, activist-oriented, and publicly engaged. Daniels provides examples of how her own work is embracing these changes through open online workshops and multimedia publications to make scholarship more accessible and impactful for public audiences.
Social Justice & Public Scholarship in the Digital AgeJessie Daniels
The landscape of scholarship has changed dramatically with the rise of digital technologies, yet we train scholars as if it's 1983. We, must begin to reimagine scholarly communication for the public good in the digital era. If academe can find a way to be digitally engaged and more fluent in the digital lexicon of the 21st century in which we find ourselves,
then, there is hope I believe for scholars to be a force for social good -- that is, an engaged citizenry & a more democratic, equal and just society.
Our Blogs, Our Bodies, Ourselves: Women's Health Activism in Digital, Global ...Jessie Daniels
Jessie Daniels, PhD gave a presentation on women's health activism in a digital, global context. She discussed how women's health activism that began in the US through publications like "Our Bodies, Ourselves" has now become a global movement. However, she raises questions about which feminist movements become transnationalized and by whom, and whether framing women's health as a movement exports a form of middle-class Western feminism. Daniels also questioned whether online women's health activism should be considered a form of digital labor.
Academic Publishing for Journalism FacultyJessie Daniels
The document provides tips and advice for scholarly publishing for journalism faculty. It discusses setting goals for publishing, checking publication rates of other faculty, maintaining a pipeline of publications, managing workflows, choosing publication formats like journal articles or blog posts, following standard formats for academic papers, conducting literature reviews, choosing targeted journals, understanding the peer review process, signing up to be a reviewer, tracking impact, and preparing tenure portfolios. The document stresses that scholarly publication is important for knowledge production and career advancement.
Public Sociology in the Digital Era (British Sociological Association)Jessie Daniels
This document summarizes a presentation by Jessie Daniels on how digital technologies are changing public sociology. Some of the key ways outlined are:
- Digital technologies have expanded access to scholarship by making information more openly accessible online rather than closed in print. This allows for more public impact.
- Knowledge production, peer review, pedagogy, and activism are all changing with new digital tools that facilitate more open and collaborative work.
- Measuring success is also changing with "altmetrics" that track online mentions and readership rather than just citations.
- Academics need to embrace these digital changes and opportunities for greater public engagement to remain relevant and justify public funding in the current environment.
Public Sociology in the Digital Era (UPenn)Jessie Daniels
In this talk I gave at UPenn on Nov.4, I discuss the ways public sociology and higher ed are changing. And, I offer some examples from the JustPublics@365 project for reimagining scholarly communication in the digital era. For more content, down
"Whiteness and Health in Transnational Context"Jessie Daniels
Despite almost two decades of research in the field of whiteness studies, there remains relatively little literature that explores the myriad connections between whiteness and health in the U.S. context. However, scholars working within a transnational, postcolonial framework have begun the work of “re-orienting whiteness” within a more global lens and, within this field, a portion of the work is concerned with how discourses, taxonomies, and technologies of science, health and medicine are used to do the work of whiteness and nation-building in English-speaking countries such as Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and former British colonies along the Pacific Rim

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

Academic scholarship is being transformed in the digital era. In contrast to the 20th c. legacy model, the emerging, 21st c. model of academic scholarship is digital, open, connected to the public sphere, worldly. This has profound implications for our understanding what it means to be a scholar right now.
John Sibley Butler, another professor of mine in grad school, was fond of saying, “ If you worked at IBM, you ’ d have to produce – why would a university be any different? ” You may disagree with his IBM=university equivalency, but he ’ s not wrong about the underlying expectation and you should recognize this is the expectation.
And, of course, there ’ s very bad news in academia regarding the way we hire (or don ’ t hire) faculty. 73%=76% of all instructional workforce in higher ed = adjunct faculty. Image from here: http://www.schoolleadership20.com/forum/topics/25-telling-facts-about-adjunct-faculty-today
Given the grim prospects for legacy tenure-track jobs in the academy, a lot of people w/ PhDs are going to do other things with those skills. Image from here: http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2013/02/how-many-phds-actually-get-to-become-college-professors/273434/
Along with that, there ’ s a ‘ counting game ’ or ‘ algorithm ’ that underpins academia.
Here ’ s how it works: your date of degree becomes your new DOB, and it ’ s used to assess your productivity. DOPhD becomes the denominator, # of pubs the numerator = rate productivity; a post-doc can extend the ‘ freshness ’ of your degree, but the expectation (in the social sciences and humanities) is still that you ’ ll get out a minimum of three (3) publications a year. In fundamental ways, academia is a counting game. Learn to make what you ’ re doing “ count, ” in some way that has academic currency. Create a spreadsheet to count “ knowledge products. ” With my “ stale ” PhD, I had a real math problem -- my date of PhD was ages ago and my # of pubs was low, but I improved that quotient by producing (see #1 above).
It ’ s also true that the academy is changing, if slowly.
There is definitely change coming in higher ed / academia ~ it ’ s a great time if you can be fluid, learn new things, adapt. I predict it may be less fun for you if this you are attached to old ways of doing things. Image from here: http://pandodaily.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/change-ahead.jpg?w=584&h=438
However, this is not a complete transition from a “ legacy ” past that is behind us, and a “ digital ” present or future. The legacy and the digital are imbricated and overlap in the here and now.
To state the obvious, there has been an expansion of digital technologies. For some, this has been ‘ transformative ’ because it is so different than the analog. For others who were “ born digital ” these are simply the way things are. Whichever group you fall into, these digital technologies have already begun transforming scholarly communication.
Simply put, the shift from analog to digital is about code.... coding information into binary code of 1 ’ s and 0 ’ s. When this happens, information - data –research – scholarship - is easier to move around, edit, analyze + to share. Image from here: https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/D83AI8LmcuyqyfnvS6qk1Q
There are new and expanding possibilities, in part because of digital media.
And, there are more opportunities for scholars to own their own work in ways that were possible before.
Here, I’m going to talk about 10 things you can do that will help you produce (+ share) knowledge in the digital media era.
Here, I’m going to talk about 10 things you can do that will help you produce (+ share) knowledge in the digital media era.
There ’ s a misperception sometimes among PhD students that you ’ re being trained to “ think ” or “ write ” or (rarely) “ teach. ” In fact, the training and the expectation is that you ’ re going to be able to “ produce knowledge, ” which encompasses thinking, writing and (sometimes) teaching, but it ’ s actually something slightly different.
In 20 th century modes of knowledge production, people thought in terms of discrete products – like books or articles, typically closed, locked behind paywall – impossible to read for those outside the academy. Image from: https://shardsofchina.wordpress.com/tag/average-wage/
And, your knowledge production should increase over time…. look something like this….from date of degree to tenure.
With digital media, you can share that knowledge more openly.
In the 21 st century, people are beginning to talk about and to produce knowledge “streams” that flow out of the academy and that you can easily step into and out of. These new knowledge streams do not replace the legacy “knowledge products” but rather augment them. We might begin to think of “ knowledge streams ” (those traditional objects alongside digital ones like a podcast series, a blog, or a short web video about your work).
Scholar are now using videos + podcasts to tell a story about their research, knowledge streams made possible by digital media. “ It’s an interesting visual showing how an extended slinky hovers in midair when dropped. The dramatic demonstration is followed by the scientific explanation. What’s cool about the video is that the researcher shows the raw model on the computer and talks about the experiment, but it’s the intro that grabs your attention. The demo is intriguing and compels you into wanted to learn more. It’s Matrix stuff! Along with the video there is also a link to the pre-print of the paper providing everyone with open access to the scholarly material. It’s a great way to promote a paper. The video has over one million views and over nine hundred comments. …This is exactly what research libraries are talking about: data, visualization, modeling, social media, etc. While the open access aspect of the article enables people to read the work, it’s the YouTube video that creates buzz building word of mouth and fueling discovery. Now the sad thing is that a tenure committees probably would not factor this in, but imagine being able to put something in your review packet that says: I did this experiment, wrote a paper, and over one million people learned about my research. Talk about alt metrics…” “ he average number of citations for all refereed publications is LESS THAN ONE. Even if only 1 in 10 of the people who viewed this result online actually learned something, that's a much greater impact than the average article has. That has to be a good thing. Science and other academic disciplines have been satisfied with talking to themselves for too long. Online is more important than in-person because none of us will ever contact 1 million 'readers' any other way. ” Source: http://chronicle.com/blognetwork/theubiquitouslibrarian/2012/11/17/research-should-be-produced-not-just-published/
Academia (even on the tenure-track) is becoming more and more grant-driven,
It’s beyond the scope of my remarks here, but the shortest version of this message is that sharing your scholarly work through digital media relies on principles of “open access.” If you’re not familiar with the open access debate in academia, Peter Suber’s book is a good place to start: http://mitpress.mit.edu/books/open-access. And, if someone tells you to embargo your dissertation, tell them there’s no evidence to support such a stance and that they’re doing the bidding of for-profit publishers protecting their bottom lines, see: http://www.insidehighered.com/news/2013/07/26/despite-warnings-young-scholars-could-be-doomed-open-access-dissertations-evidence
Academia (even on the tenure-track) is becoming more and more grant-driven,
These new kinds of knowledge streams (and measurement) don ’ t replace the “ knowledge products ” of traditional academia they augment those. For example, when you write submit a paper to traditional, peer-reviewed journal you want to think about optimizing the title of that paper for search engines. As another example, a peer-reviewed article that gets Tweeted will get more citations in the traditional academic literature. http://www.biggerbrains.com/optimize-your-article-for-SEO
More than a 1/3 of faculty are now using Twitter….you can use this to share your work. “ The Faculty Focus survey of nearly 2,000 higher education professionals found that almost a third (30.7 percent) of the 1,958 respondents who completed the survey are usingTwitter in some capacity. More than half (56.4 percent) say they’ve never used Twitter.The remaining 12.9 percent of respondents say they tried it, but no longer use it.” http://www.scribd.com/doc/19253028/Twitter-in-Higher-Education-Usage-Habits-and-Trends-of-Todays-College-Faculty “ We also find that the volume of Twitter mentions is statistically correlated with arXiv downloads and early citations just months after the publication of a preprint, with a possible bias that favors highly mentioned articles.” Shuai X, Pepe A, Bollen J (2012) How the Scientific Community Reacts to Newly Submitted Preprints: Article Downloads, Twitter Mentions, and Citations.

Digital media skills - These could save your ass - whether you're leaving academia or trying to get into academia.
Given this context, what are academics to do to resist the forces of commercialization? I argue that owning the content of your own professional identity is key to this... For most faculty, their "web presence" is a page on a departmental website that they have no control over and cannot change or update even if they wanted to. "Reclaiming the web" means owning your own domain name and managing it yourself, a move Jim Groom has put forward for students + I argue should be the default strategy for faculty. Too often academics, + especially sociologists want to "resist" commercialization by "refusing" the digital and I think this is misplaced and reflects a misunderstanding of the forces at play here. "reclaiming the web" - and owning our own words, our own professional identity is just one step. You can own your own domain name or just use a free service like “ about.me ”
Digital media skills - These could save your ass - whether you're leaving academia or trying to get into academia.
I share this screenshot of my Google scholar profile not as shameless self-promotion, but rather to illustrate how "reclaiming the web" + doing public sociology can work to your advantage in academia. This is part of how I moved back into academia from a detour I took to work in private industry at a tech startup. When I started the RR blog, I was a marginally employed academic, teaching as an adjunct, and trying to get published in “ legacy ” journals. At the same time, I was blogging regularly. Today, I ’ m tenured, full with a host of ‘ legacy ’ publications in traditional venues. But the reality is most people know me through my blog and Twitter presence, not my books or articles. Sometimes these new ways of measuring influence are referred to as “ altmetrics ” http://altmetrics.org/manifesto/.
Broaden networks – not only because it will help your career – but also to build “deep tenure.”
social media makes it easier to build your networks
Networking on the Network http://vlsicad.ucsd.edu/Research/Advice/network.html Phil Agre's fundamentals of professional networking: (1) Know your goals. (2) Identify some relevant people. (3) Court these people individually. (4) Meet this person face-to-face at a professional meeting. (5) Exchange drafts. (6) Follow up. This networking the network + articulating a theme and producing work around it – is what Agre refers to as “ deep tenure. ”

Pat Collins: Go where people want to hear what you have to say. Seth Godin: A tribe is any group of people, large or small, who are connected to one another, or an idea. Now the Internet helps make tribes bigger, easier to connect with. http://mixergy.com/seth-godin-tribe/
And, you want to not only find the people who are thinking about the same things you are, you want to articulate a central idea – and produce something around that idea.
Example: Nathan Jurgenson and PJ Rey – Theorizing the Web.
Given the political + economic realities of academic jobs in which not everyone wants to be a traditional academic, and among those who think they want to be one won’t get the chance, ….
we live in exciting times for doing different things, for reimagining what it means to be an academic. The fact is, there are lots of people with PhDs who have happy, successful careers outside academia. Between 1990 and 2004, only 32% of those with PhDs in History went onto a tenure-track position in a History Department, the other 68% did something other than the tenure-track.
Bernice Johnson Reagon, PhD, history – 1975 – Howard University.
Reagon is one of the founders of Sweet Honey in the Rock … and she found a way to make art… that was informed by her research.
She also consulted on the musical choices in the documentary series Eyes on the Prize.
Some of the best sociology exists in the form of documentary film, such as the “Up” series by Michael Apted. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Up_Series If you’re interested in documentaries for use in the sociology classroom, you may want to consult this list: http://sociologythroughdocumentaryfilm.pbworks.com/w/page/17194965/FrontPage
Make news….like these two. MHP’s show especially features scholars, activists and journalists talking about the most pressing social issues of the day through a critical lens.
Tell the ASA to offer pre-conference workshops in digital media skills
One of those job-search, self-help aphorisms is: “ Employers hire people to solve problems . ” It turns out to be true, and true for academia as well. Typically, the ‘ problems ’ you are being hired to solve are to 1) raise the profile of your department, your institution, 2) gain institutional resources for the department, 3) cover the courses the dept has to offer, and 4) produce students with degrees (here it ’ s to produce people with PhDs). Increasingly, one of the ‘ problems ’ academic administrators are identifying is that they are failing to teach social media. So, with some skills in digital + social media… you can be someone who can solve this problem, and thereby increase your appeal on the job market. http://tech.fortune.cnn.com/2012/09/26/universities-are-failing-at-teaching-social-media/
